To meet a UK judgement they're likely to have to publish a 'Samsung did not
infringe' statement. How's that going to look - Your Honor, we have here Apple's
own public admission that we did not infringe. In any sane legal system that's
the end of the story and a huge financial liability for fees and compensation.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Apple isn't scared. Why should they be?
There isn't any type of people that's more sensitive and impressible to trends
than lawyers and attornies. And judges, I hazard.
They all top it off with snobism that masks their ignorance, which means Apple
is King and any competition in their eyes is actually just subversion.

Mind you, i have not researched this, but my gut-feeling
based impression:
- Samsung 'popped up' with iTing-alike stuff in -for
apple- incredible speed.
- Samsung is actually overtaking iThings in functionality
and diversity (assuming a one-for-one ban on products, who
would run out of devices to sell first, Apple or Samsung).
- Samsung is far from 'unique': there a re and abundance
of non-I-Phone makers.
Apple did 'prove' that the time and market was ripe for
iPhone and iPad-style devices, credit for that, but apple
seems to be forgetting that their stuff was never
mainstream.
For a short while those iPhone/IPad thingies
where 'unique'; Without actual alternatives, they could
get 'mainstream', before being once again overtaken by
functionally equivalent -or better- cheaper
mass-production alternatives.
Any attempt to stem that tide (surely with the 'patents'
and 'dresses' used now) is -i think- denial of 'the place
in the market' that apple 'stuff' has: stylish,
incompatible, underpowered and overpriced hardware that is
partially compensated for by brilliant software.
Dear Apple: It's not the right time to attempt to force
all of us to buy your Rolls-Royce.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
